Molly Brown led the four to her first-class suite. The four were amazed by the incredible state the higher class lived in, it was hard to not take it in all at once.

"Alright, Jay and Carlos, you can borrow my son's suits," Molly said to them when they entered her suite. They left to the other room and when they came out, they look like handsome rich gentlemen. Jay tied his long hair back while Carlos attempted to tie the tie, with his hair combed to the side.

"You look so," Evie said but paused trying to find the right word.

"Clean," Mal finished.

Jay glared at her. "Says the one who licked her hand to win a game,"

Mal smiled, while Molly ushered the boys out of the room.

"You boys can go wait by the Grand Staircase. The girls need some privacy,"

The two men were about to protest but were pushed out of the room. They sighed and walked down the hallway. Jay and Carlos turned to a corner and saw Jane and Audrey.

"Hello, ladies," Carlos and Jay greeted with a bright smile. They attempted a bow, making Jane and Audrey chuckle. "It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance,"

"The pleasure is all mine," Jane replied with a curtsy. "I'm just on my way to see if Molly needed any assistance."

"I don't know if you're busy later," Carlos said to Jane, pulling her away from their two friends. "But I was wondering if you cared to join me below deck. To where I am staying,"

"I have never been there,"

"There a first time for everything,"

Jane pondered for a moment and nodded. She walked back to Audrey but looked back at the two men. Carlos smiled and knew this was going to be an interesting night.

When Jay and Carlos left the room, Molly quickly looked through her closet, trying to find a well-fitting dress for the young women.

"Can't I just wear a suit?" Mal asked.

"No!" Molly yelled from the closet a bit irritated. "You are a lady, and this is a fancy dinner where you have to dress like one."

Mal groaned while Evie continued exploring the first-class suit. She loved everything about it, the bedding, the jewelry, and even the furniture.

"Evie," Mal said, seeing her friend smiling and walking to every part of the room. "I don't understand why you're looking at this. After tonight, we're going back to being poor again."

"Solo quiero ver todo. I want to remember esta noche.Todo es tan hermoso," (I just want to see everything. I want to remember this night. It's all so beautiful)

Mal smiled to see her friend living her dream, even if it was only for a few hours. Evie always talked about her dream, to live in the higher life, and Mal tried to help her friend in every way to achieve it.

There was a small knock at the door. Mal got up from the comfy sofa and answered it. On the other side was Audrey, now dressed for dinner, and Jane.

She let the two in, and yelled "Molly! Jane and Audrey are here."

"Good," She said, appearing through the door with two dresses. "Jane, you help me with getting them dressed up and Audrey, you can help with make-up,"

Mal tried backing away, but Evie, who was already excited enough, grabbed her arm and pulled her to the next room, with Molly, Jane, and Audrey close behind.

******************************************

When Jay and Carlos made it to the entrance of the Grand Staircase, someone opened the door and greeted them. They walked through the door, amazed by the luxury and light glowing. The first-class didn't notice them. They looked rich, that was all that mattered.

The men walked down to stairs and leaned against a wooden pole. Jay looked around, seeing how the men postured themselves. He copied them, as did Carlos.

"Good evening, Jay and Carlos." The two friends turned to see Ben and Chad standing in front of the steps.

"Hey," Jay greeted with a small wave.

Ben chuckled and looked behind him. Adam and Bella walked down the steps together, not even noticing Jay and Carlos holding out their hands out for a handshake.

It wasn't long until the women stood on top of the staircase. The four men looked up to see Audrey, Mal, and Evie in sparkling gowns. Evie, who could stop smiling, wore a navy blue dress with white gloves while Mal wore a black dress, also wearing gloves.

"Everyone was surprised to see me in any kind of dress. As for me, I was just hoping to not make a fool of myself."

The three women walked down the stairs, while Ben and Jay held out their hands to Mal and Audrey. Evie stood next to Carlos, while Jay helped Audrey on the last few steps.

Ben and Mal looked at each other, feeling time freeze. The man held Mal's hand and lightly kissed it. The woman smiled, remember the gesture from a nickelodeon she saw years ago.

The group walked to the next set of stairs, but before they could go down, Ben introduced the four newcomers to his father and cousin.

"Father, Bella," He said to them. They turned around, smiling. "I'm sure you remember Miss Dawson, Miss De Rossi, Mr. Ryan, and Mr. De Vil,"

Adam looked at the four, very surprised to see them do well dressed and groomed. "It's incredible. You all could almost past for a lady and gentleman,"

Mal shrugged, "Almost,"

Adam smiled but knew that they were worth nothing than anything. He walked down to the dining room with Bella.

Mal took in a deep breath, realizing that what Molly said before on deck was true. She and her friends were about to enter the snake pit.
